递归结构的向量存在内存问题

Vector of recursive structures has memory problems

我完全受困于一段简单的内存错误代码(如 Valgrind 所报告)。我将其简化为这个简短的测试用例:

#include <vector>

struct el
{
    el * next = nullptr;
};

class list
{
public:
    list(): tail(nullptr) {}

    void push_back()
    {
        el nw;
        m_list.push_back(nw);

        if (tail == nullptr)
            tail = &m_list.back();
        else
        {
            tail->next = &m_list.back();
            tail = tail->next;
        }
    }

private:
    std::vector<el> m_list;
    el * tail;
};

int main()
{
    list a;
    a.push_back();
    a.push_back();
    return 0;
}

我希望它创建一个包含 2 个结构的数组,第一个结构有一个指向第二个结构的指针。真正的源在销毁时因段错误而崩溃,所以我认为这个报告很重要:

一旦您 push_back 进入 vector 或以其他方式更改它,所有指向存储项的引用和指针都将失效,因此所有 tailnext 字段都将包含悬挂指针。取消引用它们将导致未定义的行为。您实际上可以使用 std::list 或者(如果您只是出于学习目的编写一些列表实现)您可以先填充 vector 然后收集指向存储项目的指针,知道它们将保持有效。
